7/3: Evan

[randori]

[ It's the growl that brings Natsuo out to the foyer, scrambling down the stairs and so so ready to see blood and tear into Dragon for lying to them? it's a break week?? why

There's no blood, but there's injuries- he stays clear of them, letting everybody who knows what to do, do it. There's nothing Natsuo can do but remember there's a pizza close to burning in the kitchen so he... goes to save that and bring it to Evan's room after he's gone there and kicks at the door, hard, as some semblance of courtesy that's unnecessary since these doors don't lock, I think. ]

EVAN HANSEN, OPEN THIS DOOR RIGHT NOW, OR I'M GOING TO THROW THIS PIZZA IN YOUR FACE, WHAT HAPPENED??!

[He opens the door hurriedly, looking panicked. He assumes that, since he isn't hurt himself, the urgency in Natsuo's voice must be related to something else that's happened, which means his first words upon flinging the door open are—]

What, what happened, who's hurt? What happened?

[randori]

[ The door gets opened but Natsuo is this close to flinging the pizza in Evan's face anyways, just so he can have both hands free to grab him by the shoulders and give him a good hard shake. ]

That's what you're telling me! What happened to you, and why is Dazai messed up, and can I come in and put this down, because my arm's getting tired!!

[selfinserting]

[First off:]

Yes, please put the pizza down if your arm hurts!

[He steps back so he can do so, even. And then, in order:]

Nothing happened to me, and Dazai's... That's kind of a long story.

[randori]

[ He slides the pizza down on top of the dresser, shakes out his arm, and whips around to point dramatically at Evan ]

I have time!! We're going to eat this pizza together and you're going to tell me that story!

[selfinserting]

[He blinks, taking a reflexive step back as Natsuo gives him that dramatic point. Slowly:]

You, you don't have to point at me like that, I never said I wasn't going to tell you...

[randori]

I'm worried! And anxious!! What else am I supposed to do with my hands!?

[ Short of shaking him, which he's still very tempted to do, but has to reel himself in and hop back to sit on the bed, slapping his hand several times on the mattress. ]

Sit and let's eat! And you can tell me!

[selfinserting]

Okay, okay! Sorry!

[He sits on the bed, glancing at the pizza as he starts.]

Is there anything you wanted to know first off, or just - start from the beginning?

[randori]

First off- nobody's in danger of dying, right?! You're not bleeding inside and you're just not telling me?!?

[selfinserting]

N-No, no way! I wouldn't do something like that!

[randori]

[ it takes incredible restraint not to point at him ]

That'd better be a promise! So start talking!

[selfinserting]

Okay, um, I promise never to not tell you if I'm bleeding internally...?!

[He doesn't know how to handle this??]

So, um, we decided to do that because we were... trying to fulfill an objective. Before you ask, I can't tell you what the objective was, so please don't ask me. Anyways, we kind of decided to try and break down the door of one of the Crafters?

[randori]

[ whyyyyyyyyy ]

Is your objective to HAVE A DEATH WISH??

[selfinserting]

Please stop screaming! I don't know how to react when you do that!

[randori]

I can't! That's like telling me not to breathe!!

[ actually

maybe he should just hold his breath, that's the only way he can stop ]

[selfinserting]

I'm pretty sure you won't die if you stop screaming...

[A pause.]

Also, no, it wasn't to have a death wish. Anyways. We didn't even think we were going to get in, that wasn't the point, so we weren't trying to do anything really dangerous!

[randori]

[ ............

This is the opposite of shouting, but the pause only lasts a second or two ]

You planned to break down the door, but you didn't think it would work? Then what's the point?!

[selfinserting]

I told you, I can't tell you the incentive. It's just... Something that meant we had to try to break down the door, but not to actually, um, break it down.

[He shrugs.]

Anyways, it doesn't matter because right before we kicked it, it opened on it's own, and we all fell in.

[randori]

[ mouths to himself 'break down the door without breaking down the door' ]

...Okay. Okay, whatever, I don't think I'll understand it anyways. It wasn't even locked at all, you were invited in?

[selfinserting]

No, it was locked. It was just like... It was like it could sense that we were about to try, because it didn't open when we tried to turn the doorknob, but it opened right before we kicked it without us even having to touch it.

[randori]

So... this super secret objective, it's complete just like that? Then you all ran away and got the hell out of there 'cause that's still a death wish.

[selfinserting]

No, I told you, we fell into the room when the door opened. Because, we were going to kick it but then it opened, so there was nothing to stop the... momentum from the kick. You know...?

[randori]

......who did the kicking, 'cause if you're falling over on your asses on a missed kick, you're doing it wrong.

[selfinserting]

All four of us...?

[They're mistakes.]

[randori]

All four of you. All at once. On one door.

[selfinserting]

...Yes.
